Description

When setting an explicit `chromePath` option, if you have a Chrome browser open (with an entirely different Chrome executable), Backstop will open numerous tabs with URLs like `chrome-extension://gnhhdgbaldcilmgcpfddgdbkhjohddkj/devtools/inspector.html?ws=localhost:9229/devtools/page/65EA1DD450CFAEADD0B2C98DDCEAE5F3` in the active Chrome browser, instead of within the (headless, invisible) executable set in `chromePath`.

This wasn't happening before we set an explicit `chromePath` executable.
